Dithering patterns used in the NGVS. A five-point dithering pattern (upper left) is used in the g- and i-band observations, a seven-point pattern in r (upper right), an eight-point pattern in z (lower left), and an 11-point pattern in u* (lower right). In each case, the reference (zero offset) position is always the final step in the dithering sequence.
